The write-off workflow records a dated reduction of a supported unpaid obligation. It preserves the original document, actual payments and credit notes. Use it only for the event your authorized accounting review has established, with a specific explanation of the remaining amount.
Open the bill's write-off action and inspect the current source evidence. Choose an open effective date on or after the relevant latest activity and review the exact remaining original line and tax allocations. Use remaining balance only when that whole amount is the intended reduction.
Select the supported counterpart to the original Accounts Payable control as required by the form. A write-off is different from proof that the supplier was paid, and it does not move money or erase the source document.
If the bill's activity changes before confirmation, close the form and reload current evidence. After the authorized action, inspect the retained write-off history and balance. Do not use an unsupported write-off simply to make a dashboard total smaller when the actual issue is a missing payment match or supplier credit.
